The characters players get to control in-game are known as classes. At the start of any match, players are prompted to choose their class via the Class selection screen. Note that pressing the , key during a match will re-open the Class Selection Screen.
All of the nine playable classes in Typical Colors 2 are based on their Team Fortress 2 counterparts. From the Flanker's unparalleled agility to the Brute's raw strength, every class has something to offer to their team.
For more information on each class, visit their respective pages.
Disclaimer
Although each class is grouped under distinct role types for ease of reading and access, they are not bound by these labels. Most classes have other roles that are largely playstyle dependent, and as such there are other community-made roles for each class.
The Flanker has amazing mobility with his high base speed and the ability to double jump, which allows him to dodge incoming damage and secure objectives for his team.
His standard primary weapon, the Lever Shotgun, is much more powerful at close range than most weapons. With good enough aim and movement, he can kill Brutes in only 3 shots!
However, he shares the lowest health pool in the game with three other classes, meaning getting too cocky and taking on fights he can't handle on his own is not advised.
The Marksman demands patience to perform well, as good aim and positioning are vital to securing picks on key opponents.
His primary weapon, the Sniper Rifle, is devastating when landing a headshot, and has the potential to deal up to 450 damage when fully charged, which can kill a Brute with max overheal!
The MAC-10 and Machete are excellent at self-defense and should not be underestimated whenever he's cornered.

ANNIHILATOR
Role Synopsis
The Annihilator is a threat to large groups of opponents, more so than the Trooper in some instances, as his mere presence can be enough to disrupt coordinated team pushes.
His Grenade Launcher packs a hefty punch, dishing out a clean 100 points of damage at all ranges. Landing several direct pipes in a row can cripple the enemy team's defenses!
Often considered by many to be his "second primary", the Stickybomb Launcher has a high ammo capacity and the ability to lock down any contested objective or chokepoint with high-powered, manually detonated explosives.
Power
Trooper, Brute and Arsonist specialize in crowd control and maintaining the team's frontline prowess.
The Trooper is a jack-of-all-trades class, performing optimally in most roles. This makes him arguably one of the best combat classes for new and veteran players alike.
His Rocket Launcher allows him to blow the enemy to bits, and the vast array of secondary and melee weapons at his disposal allows him to easily adapt to whatever gets in his team's way.
Though he is the second slowest class by default, the extra mobility granted by rocket jumping means that an experienced Trooper can apply serious pressure through bombs and rotations.
The Brute is a great pick for holding the line, as he can often become the anchor for his team in heated battles; his Minigun shreds through opponents who are foolish enough to get within his range.
Having the highest health pool in the game by default, he is designed for sustained fights and encounters, especially when paired with friendly Doctors.
However, his very slow base speed means that positioning and health management are key to playing the class well, as one wrong move can lead to a swift and merciless death.
The Arsonist, much like the Trooper, is adept in plenty of situations. They have a fairly high base health pool and can move surprisingly quickly on the ground, making them perfect for ambushing enemies.
Their Flamethrower can set multiple people on fire at once, and has the ability to airblast. This allows the Arsonist to fulfil a niche supportive role in combat, allowing them to extinguish teammates who are on fire, reflect projectiles back at enemies and push opponents away from key areas.
Combining damage from its flamethrower with certain secondary and melee options are also vital to an Arsonist's success, as the relatively low range of the flamethrower makes it difficult to secure kills on its own without serious risk.
Support
Mechanic, Doctor and Agent struggle in fights on their own, but their specialized abilities can often tip the balance in their team's favor. They offer the pick and power classes an extra edge in battle and can help turn the tide of matches in dire situations.
The Mechanic is the quintessential support class. Though he is equipped with a Shotgun and a Pistol, which are secondary weapons for other classes, each of his buildings have a unique and important role to fill.
Sentries are outstanding area denial tools, and can help your team fall back to safety or push forward onto an objective.
Dispensers provide health and munitions for teammates who are within its range, which can be the edge your team needs to hold the line.
Teleporters are best used in conjunction with your team's power classes to bring them to the frontlines quickly, saving precious time that would have otherwise been spent walking or blast jumping.
The Doctor is welcome on any team, no matter the game state; having the ability to quickly heal injured teammates in or out of combat, the Doctor is arguably the most influential class in the game.
He also comes with the ability to SuperCharge his teammates and provide massive temporary benefits such as 8 seconds of invincibility with his default Medigun.
It should be noted that his "weapons" are substantially weaker than other classes and are more suited for utility rather than dealing direct damage.
The Agent is arguably the weakest class in the game on her own, as she does not have much sustainability, though what she brings to the table is welcomed on any coordinated team.
Her main abilities revolve around cloaking and disguising behind enemy lines to pick off key targets such as Marksmen and Doctors with her Knife and Revolver.
She also wields a Sapper, which is a soft-counter to an enemy Mechanic's buildings and is best used in conjunction with team pushes.

RANDOM
Role Synopsis
Clicking on the random button will randomly select one of the nine classes available, perfect for challenges or other special occasions. This option was officially added on June 11, 2021, as a part of the Summer 2021 update.
Size
All classes have varying heights, with the Mechanic being the shortest and Brute being the tallest of all classes for the purposes of tracing hit scan weapons.
However, all classes are considered to be the same size and height when panning over to third-person. This is due to the purpose of player collisions, melee attacks, and projectiles. This also means that classes don't have any advantages/disadvantages when navigating around corners or through tight spaces.

Before the Kringle's Annual New Year Expansion update, The classes were originally divided into "Offensive", "Defensive" and "Support". Offensive included; Flanker, Trooper and Annihilator. Defensive included; Arsonist, Brute and Mechanic. Support included; Doctor, Marksman and Agent.
